People are great, the plants are great cant wait for my next shipment!
Fantastic shipping and customer service, they replaced first received that was damaged with no problem at all
Now planted and hope to give another excellent review In 6-months.
This was my first time buying plants on line and I was very leery. I ordered an avocado combo pack. I received the two trees in August and planted the day they arrived. Even tho when delivered they weren't "this side up", they appeared to be in good shape. After a week they had lost most of the leaves and I called. I was told they were in shock and give them a few more weeks. Each week they got progressively worse until there were no leaves on one and it was completely brown and only 5 on the other and they were wilted. I called again an was told one would be replaced. I was asked to take pictures and fill out an online claim which I immediately did. When I hadn't heard after a couple weeks I called again. I was told they never received and to send an email with pictures which I immediately did. I received an email that said I would hear in one to three business days. After a week I sent another email to ask about the status. No reply until about a week after the original week (over two weeks since I sent original email and about a month since I filled out on line form). They approved the replacement of one and sent it on the date I asked. The tree looks beautiful. It's been in the ground a little over a week and looks much better. The second tree of the original order has no leaves, but still has some green to the trunk. I'm hopeful it will come back. Every person I spoke with was very pleasant, professional and helpful.
I had to reach out to get a second tree shipped out because the first one never got packed and shipped.
Beautiful tree. Arrived quickly and in good shape. Planted per instructions. Looks good.
One of the 4 trees (Emerald Green Arborvitae) in my order died in less than 3 months AND I had to pay almost $68 to get it replaced by purchasing a one year warranty, which in fact did not cover the replacement tree. The replacement tree was only covered for 30 days. THAT'S MESS UP!
Nice trees,
Shipping was iffy. Found them cheaper on other sites but purchased from them because
Called and they are very informative about all aspects of products
And planting of, pest control, warranties.
Easy to order, person raking my order was very helpful, tree delivery was quick and easy
UPDATE: Received a response and a tracking number and the trees are suppose to be delivered tomorrow.
Purchased 4 Red bark japanese maple trees for over $500 and have never received them yet. I tried contacting them only to have them direct me to the website of which says they shipped. Sent email telling them I had not received still and no return response. But you know they got their money as I have the charge on my bank statement to prove it.
It took seven days for the plants to come and the fruit tree was a fruit cocktail tree that was not showing any signs of life it was also over pruned with broken branches
It's likely going dormant right now so it can focus on its roots. We have teh order notated about this so we can help out in Spring if for some reason it does not leaf back out!
These guys have such a huge variety of things and ordering from them was easy. And we received our order quick. I had to call them twice with questions and they were very informative and helpful. We will definitely be ordering from them in the future.
Received my Crape Myrtle boxed and in a container. The Sahara desert has more moisture than the root bulb had. Since I'm in medicine, I immediately began life support measures. We shall see the outcome in the spring!
After planting three sugar maples, I noticed that they were different in height. One was shorter than the other two- we ordered 6' trees. You must include the root ball with the height, which was not clear from the description. One tree was a whole foot shorter than the other two. The trees are healthy, hopefully they will do well over the winter, we did buy the insurance.
I am pleased with everything except my expectation of size.
I ordered a Royal Empress tree by telephone and my credit card was charged. When it did not arrive I checked on line and was informed that it would be shipped in 1-2 days. After several checks with similar results, I called and wa then told that the product was out of stock with unknown availability. Fortunately a refund was quickly made. I am concerned that my credit card was charged before order availability was known.
We are so sorry that we weren't able to ship this tree! Unfortunately when dealing with Mother Nature, she can be unpredictable and our inventory just wasn't up to par to ship. We sincerely apologize again for the inconvenience!
All the reviews from everyone else are completely accurate. This is such a beautiful tree it was wonderfully packaged and it is gorgeous if you're looking for a big treat you will not be disappointed
I am first time customer and decided to try Fast Growing Trees. The plants arrived on time but few of them were coming out of the pots due to way it was packed. They seemed to be undamaged and are now planted but still concerned they will not do well. Hoping for the best.
I was disappointed, after placing my order and waiting for delivery fir 2 weeks, and after getting email that says I'm being refunded with no explanation
We sincerely apologize that we were not able to ship your plants! We are really dependent on Mother Nature when growing plants and unfortunately there were environmental factors that occurred and were out of our control.
Two healthy and full Tea Olive trees showed up quickly. I would definitely purchase from them again.
Answer: Cancel your order now before it's too late, go to a local nursery and save yourself some money and unwarranted aggravation, these folks are not honorable.
Answer: I ordered 3 autumn blaze maples. They have been in the ground for 2 years now and have yet to turn red in the fall. I did some research and found that they only turn red if the temperature conditions are right. I live in Idaho and we basically skipped fall this year and went straight into winter. So once again the leaves just turned brown. I am hoping to finally get a display next year.
Answer: The same thing is happening to me. My tree died and they keep saying they're going to make good and nothing happens. Real crooks, this company.
